Full GNR COVER ALBUM RELEASE
The debut album Appetite for Destruction by Guns N' Roses is nothing short of a rock masterpiece. Its gritty guitar riffs, raw energy, and Axl Rose's unmistakable voice have captivated fans since its release in 1987.
But what happens when you strip the distortion, crank down the amps, and reinterpret its 12 iconic tracks with just acoustic guitars? Enter my acoustic cover album, a tribute to one of rock’s greatest records, featuring the extraordinary voice of Canadian singer Jonathan Rogler.

My debut single
my DEBUT ALBUM
Check out my debut album, Living on a Knife Edge, featuring the incredible UK vocalist Lui Matthews released in 2014.
This self-funded project was recorded and mastered entirely by me, and while it may not have the polish of a big studio production, I’m proud of what I accomplished.
The album brings classic rock vibes with powerful riffs, bluesy solos, and melodic vocals, inspired by some of my favorite bands—Guns N' Roses, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, and Aerosmith. Though these legends influenced my writing back then,
I've recently been exploring fusion guitar and instrumental music, adding new dimensions to my sound.
